Send an IPv6 Ping
This page is used to send a ping request to a specified host name or IPv6 address. You can
use this to check whether the switch can communicate with a particular IPv6 station. When
you click the Apply button, the switch sends a specified number of ping requests and the
results are displayed below the configurable data. The output displays the following:
Send count=n, Receive count=n from (IPv6 Address). Average round trip time = n ms.
 To send an IPv6 ping:

If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch on page 11.
